Duterte bashes ICC but says deaths of druglords, mayors on him (Al Jazeera)

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has lashed out anew at the International Criminal Court (ICC), which recently ordered a probe into his deadly war on drugs in the country, but said he is assuming responsibility for the deaths of alleged drug traffickers and several mayors during his term.

Duterte made the statements during a visit to the western province of Palawan on Thursday, during which he also told The Hague court to “just drop dead” as he would not submit himself to the jurisdiction of the international tribunal.
